Appia - Highlights

Appia is an ancient road in Rome and in native language; it is called Via Appia, which means Appian Road. Rome has several ancient roads, since the Emperors of Rome based their success on being able to commute to different regions of their kingdom. Appian Way was constructed in fourth century BC. One of the oldest roads in Rome, the Appian Way was the chief source of transporting food and war requirements to soldiers. The road has a rich and gruesome history. While its significance in the Roman political system earned it the name of “The Queen of Roads”, it has also witnessed horrific crucifixion of six thousand slaves in the 71st century BC. It was the site of Anzoi battle in the World War II and the route for the athletes to run the marathon in the 1960 Olympics.
